After Tadej Pogacar (UAE Team Emirates) had been isolated others had tried to go on the offensive. But once everyone was on their own without teammates to aid them, that is when Pogacar took off. For a few seconds it looked like Jonas Vingegaard (Visma-Lease a Bike) and Paul Seixas (Decathlon-CMA CGM) were going to be able to hold onto the wheel of the Maillot Jaune. They could not. Behind them in his Maillot Blanc Juan Ayuso (Lidl-Trek) was finding the pace just too much to handle. Once he has gone it is very rare that Pogacar is seen again. Today was no exception. I wasn't pleased with the camera angles when he won the stage, so this will have to do for his victory painting. Let's face it, this is when he won the stage. I do think he has already won the Tour. Although today he seemed weaker, but then he could have been doing the 'rope a dope' move of feinting weakness in order to get his rivals to over commit. That may have been what happened to Vingegaard today.
